Descripción
Gravitational dynamical friction is expected to cause the orbits of globular clusters to shrink as a function of time. This effect may offer a unique probe of the particle dark matter paradigm. We discuss this effect, and compare the dark matter prediction to observational data of globular cluster-rich, dark matter-dominated dwarf galaxies.
